Boeing 777X WH001

WH001 was the first dedicated Boeing 777-9 flight-test airplane and the aircraft that made the 777X generation first flight on 25 January 2020. Its role as the lead test article for the new composite-wing, folding-tip 777X generation makes it a historically significant individual aircraft rather than a routine production tail.
